Acute aortic dissection versus aortic root aneurysm: comparison of indications for valve sparing aortic root reconstruction.
OBJECTIVES To prove whether different indications for valve sparing aortic root reconstruction may have an impact on the outcome and longevity of the repair. METHODS From July 1993 to March 2003, the reimplantation technique for valve sparing aortic root reconstruction was applied to 232 patients. In 44 patients, indication for operation was acute aortic dissection type A (AADA). These patien...
متن کاملAortic aneurysm, dissection, or rupture: which one?
A 16-year-old boy was brought to the clinic because of persistence of vomiting. The only positive point was a history of an uneventful car accident 3 months earlier. Chest computed tomography scan showed aneurysmal structure obliterating the esophagus. Further delineation of the aortic anatomy with transesophageal echocardiography disclosed it as pseudoaneurysm of aorta. He was taken to the ope...
متن کاملAortic root remodeling for root aneurysm with a uni-commissural aortic valve: report of a case.
A 23-year-old man was admitted for an aortic root aneurysm with mild aortic valve regurgitation (AR) and a small pressure gradient. At surgery, findings of aortic valve, one normal left posterior commissure and very rudimentary right anterior commissure, was compatible with the uni-commisural aortic valve. Aortic root replacement with valve-sparing technique was performed. Four years later no r...
متن کاملValve-sparing aortic root replacement in patients after a previous operation for acute type A aortic dissection.
T he list of long-term complications after surgical intervention for acute type A aortic dissection includes recurrent dissection, aneurysm formation, and aortic valve regurgitation. Ten years after the initial operation for acute type A dissection, the reoperation rate for these kinds of long-term complications is 13% to 30% in the literature.1 The diseased aortic root in these patients is com...
متن کاملThe Prognosis in Aortic Dissection (dissecting Aortic Hematoma or Aneurysm).
REVIEWS of collected series of cases of aortic dissection (dissecting aneurysm or hematoma of the aorta) have clearly shown high early mortality." 2 Studies also have shown a relatively low rate of accuracy of diagnosis (50 to 60 per cent). These two factors indicate the present inadequacies of treatment for this condition. In the past, the only treatment available was supportive. More recently...
